Fantasy football rankings for Week 14: Chargers may have to lean even more on Austin Ekeler
In most fantasy leagues, it's either the final week of the regular season or the first round of the playoffs. Unfortunately for both groups, we still have one more set of byes to navigate -- not to mention the usual injury issues and players in quarantine. Good luck to all; you're going to need it to keep your championship hopes alive.
ON BYE: Indianapolis Colts, Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, Philadelphia Eagles
Fantasy football rankings for Week 14 are based on the point-per-reception (PPR) scoring used in most seasonal and daily fantasy football formats. One point is awarded for every 10 rushing and receiving yards and one point for every 20 passing yards. Six points are awarded for touchdowns scored, four points for passing TDs and one point for receptions.
Rankings are compiled by FantasySharks.com.
